While contaminated milk, seafood, toothpaste, candy, pet food etc... have been raising health concerns about ingestible products made in China - other recent cases show that products in simple contact with your skin may be harmful too.
4 months ago the French furniture retailer Conforama withdrew chairs made in China from its stores because they presented an allergy risk due to presence of dimethylfumarate, a chemical substance meant to fight humidity and mold.
Last week, it was the Popular French clothing chain Etam which had to stop selling Chinese-made boots and shoes containing the same anti-fungal chemical previously blamed for causing rashes.
Seems French brands have a serious need to refocus their QC..
